[gaim-migrate @ 13894] this lets you leave a highlighted tab by control-tab (forward) or control-shift-tab (backwards). its not 100% intuitive though, because it leaves the tab highlighed, which means that in the case of 1 highlighted tab, the current one, you will leave the tab on the first control-tab, then immediately return to it on the second one. For this reason, removing the highlighting of current tabs would be a better permanent solution. In talking with Tim however, he suggested we do both, on the off chance we change our minds about the tab highlighting and go back to the autoswitching. committer: Tailor Script <[e-mail]>

SILC Gaim Plugin
================

This is Gaim protocol plugin of the protocol called Secure Internet Live 
Conferencing (SILC).  The implementation will use the SILC Toolkit, 
freely available from the http://silcnet.org/ site, for the actual SILC 
protocol implementation.

To include the SILC into Gaim, one needs to first compile and install 
the SILC Toolkit.  It is done as follows:

	./configure --enable-shared --without-silcd --without-irssi
	make
	make install

This will compile shared libraries of the SILC Toolkit.  If the --prefix 
is not given to ./configure, the binaries are installed into the 
/usr/local/silc directory.

Once the Toolkit is installed one needs to tell for the Gaim ./configure
script where the SILC Toolkit is located.  It is done as follows:

	./configure --with-silc-libs=/path/to/silc/lib
		    --with-silc-includes=/path/to/silc/include

If the Toolkit cannot be located the SILC will not be compiled into the 
Gaim.
